Stocks marked as SOLD OUT are considered to be in too small a number to guarantee a supply of grade 1 plants.

All winter rose orders will receive a full mailed confirmation as soon as possible after order is processed detailing availability and despatch dates.
Other plant groups will be despatched within 10 days of the order being received and processed. Potted plants have shipping included in the advertised price

Adverse Conditions beyond our control sometimes happen. Roses are a field crop and as such are subject to the vagaries of weather (such as wind or hail storms), as well as misadventure from mechanical diggers. Rain at harvest can delay despatch.
Such problems can affect the yield of the crop and dramatically reduce the expected numbers of plants and/or the proposed despatch dates.

Quality: We believe all our stock to be of good quality, irrespective of the amount of stems the plant produces. This will vary naturally,and by rose variety. Some plants having one stem, some two and some even more. This does not indicate that the plant with the most stems is more vigorous than the plant with one. The size and amount of stems is different with each variety.
